Is it possible to allow the PIN lock to accept any password as a PIN?

I think it's stupid how Windows Mobile makes it so I HAVE to have at least 4 numbers and it cant be anything like '1234' or '1111'. All I want is a simple key screen where if a friend gets ahold of it, they won't be able to immediately get into my phone. I mean, if I can make it so there is no key entry at all, I should be able to put in a stupid 1 number password like lets say '7' then hit unlock. You would think that password would be easy to figure out, but not many people would try just one number to unlock the device. So far, all I have found is a registry edit to change the minimum password length for something else, but not for the lock.

There is a cab that has 9 dots 3 x 3 and you connect them in any pattern you choose, but for the life of me I forgot the name...brb.

"edit" Cant find it ...about a gigs worth of cabs on this phone and I lost it in here somewhere...

Correct.
You can have 3x3 all the way up to 10x10 now.
and You can even overlap your lines now.
The possibilities of lock combos are ridiculous.
